Vile Rabbit-Chapter 80 - . exploring the vacuum. nebula 3
Apexion’s will penetrated the nebula’s mind and dived into its memories, his vision shifting.
….
He was at the center of the nebula, attached to extremely weak a mental energy, which was equal to that of a peak supreme rank mental energy, but he noticed it was getting stronger at an extremely slow pace.
Time passed for about ten thousand years, and suddenly, the mental energy contracted into a single point, about the size of a dust particle, then,
boom!
It exploded outwards, now enveloping everything within a radius of ten thousand km. The mental energy had evolved into a will.
The will started to pulse with curiosity as it scanned the area that surrounded it.
A few minutes later, it flashed into the distance, traveling through the colorful cosmic dust like lightning.
After a while, it came to a stop and started to pulse, after which the spirit particles’ energy started to flow toward it, and it absorbed it greedily.
Thousands of years flashed by, and the will evolved again into a tier 2 will. Now it could cover a radius of one hundred thousand km, after which it wandered around again excitedly.

After hundreds of years, it came to a stop and started absorbing spirit particles again.
Hundreds of thousands of years flew by, and it evolved once more, becoming a tier 3 will; it could envelop a radius of a million kilometers.
After evolving, it flashed towards a small colorful star that was not too far from it. Soon, it arrived before the star, paused for a second as if contemplating something, then flashed inside the star.
After entering the star, it shattered, then started fusing with the star.
After hundreds of years passed, it was completely one with the star. The star started floating around for a few minutes, after which it cracked open, revealing a humanoid creature that shimmered with countless colors.
The creature scanned its body for a while, then shot off into the distance.
It wandered around aimlessly for a while before coming to a stop, then morphed into a star once more and started to absorb spirit energy again.
Hundreds of thousands of years flashed by, and the will evolved once more. But right before it could experienced its newfound strength, a glowing jet-black rabbit-like creature appeared before it.
…
After viewing the creature’s memories, Apexion’s eyes burned brighter with fascination; he had never thought something such as a nebula could give birth to a will.
"Then does that mean anything can give birth to a will? As long as it meets certain criteria, such as a high density of spirit particles and time?" He wondered as Countless ideas flashed through his mind, and suddenly, he thought of something that caused his eyes to widen slightly,
"Does that also means that his world could also give birth to a will?" He whispered to himself, after which he gazed at the creature that was trapped before him, and multiple ideas flashed through his mind.
A second later, he decided to get this creature to follow his path, even if he had to force it.
Because currently, he wasn’t powerful enough to instantly destroy something this gigantic, and he couldn’t leave a being such as this, a potential threat, freely on its own, not under his absolute control.
It was one thing if he hadn’t discovered it, but now that he had, his mind wouldn’t be at rest if he didn’t have it under his absolute control.
’I guess my toll isn’t so worthless after all.’
He then removed his finger from the creature’s head, after which the barrier vanished, releasing it, but he made sure that the creature couldn’t move. A few seconds later, the creature’s eyes flashed; it had regained consciousness. It gazed at him and shouted in an extremely angry tone,
"Release! Release! Release!"
Apexion ignored its ravings, and his right index finger vanished, then,
splat!
He flicked the creature’s head, exploding it, its colorful brain matter spattered all over the cosmic dust around them.
A few seconds later, its head reformed, and this time it didn’t continue to rave but just gazed at Apexion in defiance.
"I have two options for you… one, submit your entire existence to me, and in return, I shall grant you wonder beyond your imagination. I shall grant you bodily autonomy, the ability to completely control your body, the ability to travel the endless vacuum and explore all its wonders…
two, you could choose to refuse my first option, and in return, I shall grant you endless torment. I shall bind your true body with unbreakable chains, seal your sight, seal your touch, seal your hearing, seal your advancing, after which I shall bury you at this very spot, making your true body a coffin, a coffin that houses its very will. Granting you eternal darkness for as long as I live, granting you a fate worse than if you had never birthed sentience… now choose."
Hearing him, the creature’s eyes shone for an instant and then dimmed.
Even though it didn’t understand his words themselves, it understood their intent, but it didn’t believe the creature before it could grant it any of the things it said.
It did not, and why would it, after all, what was it? It was a cosmic being formed from countless cosmic dust, a colossal being the size of no other.
How could any creature grant it so-called freedom, grant it the ability to freely wander the dark vacuum? It refused to believe that, the same as how it refused to believe that the creature could bind its true body and bury it inside it, and even if the creature could really seal it in its body, would it really suffer? No, for how long had it been alive, not even that, for how long had its true body been alive, even though it wasn’t conscious for not even a fraction of the time its true body had been alive, it could still feel the heaviness of the years its true body had endured,
Plus during those years it has always been by itself. A motionless cosmic being standing alone within the dark and cold vacuum, so it didn’t fear the darkness that the creature promised, for that’s all it had ever known.
